The GIMP Retinex Filter Used for Detecting Mispicks in Fabrics
Annotatsiya
The paper is proposing the use of a Retinex filter (GIMP Retinex) for detecting the mispicks, that is, the filling yarns that have failed to interlace with the warp of fabrics. Because a Retinex filtering is modelled on the mechanisms of human vision, it seems reasonable that it could be used in processing the images to simulate what the trained staff of textile industry is making in the visual inspection of fabrics on off-line stations. Here some examples are given, showing promising good results. Keywords: image processing, Retinex filtering, GIMP Retinex, texture analysis, fabric fault detection
